In brief, my opinion is the angry far lefties who control the primaries are going to drag the party to the left and ultimately break it up. I know the Greens aren't viable. I suspect in the next generation we'll see a dominant majority Republican party with a shifting coalition of smaller parties of varying degrees of liberal/socialist slates, much like in Parlimentary countries. The problem with the Dem party is, and has always been, its a competing group of special interests who are all chasing the same dime- the well has run dry so they have very little common interest, and each of their competing interests are going to make them tear at one another. On top of that is the real anger and impotence of the dying hippie left who bemoan the conservatism of today's youth. I think they are already a regional instead of a national party and the exodus of productive members of the blue states to the red states is going to exacerbate the situation. I'd link you to the article I read aobut that yesterday but I'm too busy.

later
